Summer. End of June. Inside. Had to walk from the church to the parish
hall for the reception, and by the time we could head on over there, all
the umbrellas had migrated over there, so we had to run in the rain, me in
high heels and my white dress! (Fortunately it was cotton, so it could
take the wet.) By the time it was time for us to leave, it had cleared up
reasonably well. This gave all of Dan's male friends plenty of rain-free
time to decorate his car. :) Of course, we'd hidden a rental car the day
before, and got away in *that*!
The last outdoor wedding I was at, it was threatening rain for awhile, but
we didn't get any rain right there. I think some fell about 20 miles
away, though. (That one was in July, and in the Virginia piedmont, and it
was just gorgeous.)

They weren't wearing seatbelts, were they? That's my pet peeve --
seatbelt use. I'm compiling a list of accidents where some people in the
car were wearing seatbelts and survived nicely, and other people weren't,
and died.
